So far as I know there are no defined class I or class II epitopes for GFP.
But, if there is anyone out there that knows of one that would be great.
An interesting suggestion may be to make a fusion of some sort between B-gal
and a short sequence having defined epitopes separated by a short peptide
sequence that can be cleaved by the proteasome.
